9 Jan 2219 Jahr - The mission to find the crow of the Prometheus.

Beschreibung:

The Geryon arrives in orbit over LV-223 and the rest of the crew are woken. The Perses and Helios set down on the planet near where the probe of 2090 was destroyed. This is also the same place where USCSS Prometheus landed in 2093 and the Onager crashed in 2179. Instead of the expected desert, they find a jungle full of flora and fauna. They later find a herd of dead animal carcasses and eventually the wreck of the Onager, overgrown with jungle.
Led by security chief Galgo Helder, they enter the Onager and are attacked by the Aliens that have set up a hive there. They narrowly escape and Foster calls down the Kadmos to evacuate them. Two crew members have facehuggers attached to them while three others are wounded when they fall into a lake inhabited by mutated shark-like creatures. Everyone regroups on the Helios and Foster informs them of the real purpose of the mission – to find out what happened to Peter Weyland and the Prometheus.

Francis and the synthetic construct Elden, who was separated from the main group earlier, are located in the cave where Derrick Russell lived 30 years prior. A group leaves the Helios to retrieve them. Francis reads through Russell’s extensive research and realizes he may be able to use the black accelerant liquid to cure his terminal cancer – if he passes it through a filter. Like Elden.

On their way to the rendezvous with Francis and Elden, Foster, Galgo and others find the wreckage of the Juggernaut and investigate. Galgo finds what appears to be an Engineers rifle. The group intercepts Francis on the run from Elden. Francis explains that he injected Elden with the accelerant and he started mutating and becoming violent. Foster orders that Francis be arrested.

Meanwhile the Helios comes under Alien attack. Foster orders Galgo and his crew to take Francis and head to the Perses. Then he’ll return to the Helios with some more weapons to deal with the Aliens. However Elden reaches the Helios first and opens the hatches to allow the Aliens inside. Galgo and his crew elect to abandon Foster and the rest of the crew and leave LV-223 on Perses.

The survivors on the Helios escape on ATVs and regroup with Fosters crew at the Juggernaut. Foster contacts Traynor on the Geryon and requests an evac via the Kadmos. Galgo reaches Geryon first however and kills Traynor and the Kadmos crew before it can be launched.

Fosters crew discover a chamber on the Juggernaut where the Engineers create lifeforms, still operational. The Aliens attack the Juggernaut, killing nearly all the remaining crew. Atkinson and Weddel are rescued by an Engineer wielding a gun similar to the one Galgo found, only for it to kill them shortly after killing the Aliens.

The only survivors are Foster, Jill and Chris, who make it to Derrick Russell’s cave and set up camp.

Prometheus Fire and Stone
January 22th, 2219 The remaining ships of the Geryon armada – consisting of Geryon, Kadmos and Perses is on course to Earth, when Elden aboard the Helios catches up with them and docks. Elden is in a constant state of mutation, and demands the Galgo hand Francis over to him. Galgo is happy to comply, but they’re interrupted when a Predator hunting party dock with the Geryon and board.
Galgo and Francis make a run for it as Elden and a horde of Aliens invade the Geryon. The Aliens kill the survivors on the Kadmos, and a Predator attacks Galgo. Francis runs and hides from Elden as Galgo escapes on the Perses – not knowing a Predator also snuck on board.

Three Predators engage Elden and his Aliens. One is infected when bitten by Elden and changes into a similar kind of mutant – though one more akin to Fifield than the more rational Elden. Elden kills another Predator, while the third knows it can’t win and so scars Elden with the mark of its clan.

Elden says he has equipment that could amplify a distress signal for a rescue party. Angela says they need something to generate a signal, then remembers the signal Russell spoke of underneath the mountain. Galgo, Angela and Elden approach the Onager wreck in an attempt to use it to drill under the mountain to reach the transmitter. Ahab helps Elden deal with the Aliens on the Onager, and a massively bloated Alien Queen is killed. The Onager is launched but as they drill into the mountain they quickly discover an acid river, and Elden says it’s a vein. The mountain is alive. Angela manages to set the Onager down and locates the source of the signal behind a wall. She’s about to hack through, but Elden stops her. He says the being was on Prometheus and grew up around it and became the mountain. Elden merges with the being – ‘sacrificing’ himself to allow Angela, Galgo and Ahab to escape.
